OpenBot

OpenBot is the free, open-source alternative to Grok Bot.
Runs locally with no limits, on the subscription you already pay for.

What even is OpenBot?

It’s a free, open-source Grok Bot alternative that runs locally on your machine.

Create AI teammates, give them jobs, and let them work for you.

@DerangedBytes Understand, anyway thanks for being honest. We will continue working on conversations with agents.

[OpenBot @OpenBot_]

OpenBot v0.37.0 is out 🚀

Here’s what’s new:

Easier provider sign-in
- Sign in to Grok, Cursor, Cline, and Muse with a code.
- If browser sign-in doesn’t finish, OpenBot offers code sign-in.
- Connect Gemini with an API key.
- On Linux, Claude sign-in also supports a code you can paste.

More control over routines
- Choose what happens when OpenBot was closed at a scheduled time: skip the run or run it once when OpenBot opens.
- Routine history now shows skipped runs and marks runs that started late.

Choose your dictation model
- Manage dictation models in Settings → Voice.
- Download Whisper large-v3 turbo for dictation in about 100 languages.
- Parakeet remains the default and detects the spoken language automatically.

Connect mobile to your own server
- Pair the phone app with a self-hosted or Docker server by scanning a QR code.

More complete translations
- German, Spanish, French, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, and Turkish now cover all interface text.

And there’s a new way to catch up after updating: OpenBot shows release notes in an in-app popup, including notes for versions you skipped.

@DerangedBytes Thanks for the feedback! Agents can’t speak their replies yet, but voice input has been improved in the latest version. When did you last try it?

[OpenBot @OpenBot_]

@Chakravart64245 Yeah, we’re aware of this issue. For now, we recommend using OpenBot’s built-in browser for tasks like this.
